"The National Fire Brigade Monument has been in Schaarsbergen since 2012. There we reflect on the courage and decisiveness of the fire service colleagues who have died since 5 May 1945 while working for the fire service. Here we show each other the respect due to our deceased colleagues. A place to commemorate, but also to reflect and realize that we practice a beautiful and versatile, but also dangerous profession."

The monument consists of a hilly area in which a shape has been cut, which is filled in with slate. There are also undulating walls and a floor in a gently sloping landscape. There is, among other things, a covered area with a bench, a large photo and a wall with the names of deceased firefighters from 1945.

There is also a Virtual geocache at this location (visit link)
